How about Internet of Things Engineering

I graduated from Northeast Agricultural University and was a student of Internet of Things Engineering in the College of Electricity and Information.

The Internet of Things Engineering program is a higher education undergraduate program , belonging to the computer class majors, with a basic training period of four years, and is awarded the Bachelor's Degree in Engineering. .

The program requires mastery of mathematics and other related natural science fundamentals, as well as basic theories, knowledge, skills and methods of computers, communications and sensors related to the Internet of Things (IoT), and fosters the development of systematic mastery of theories, methods and skills related to the IoT.

This course is designed to provide students with the opportunity to learn more about the Internet of Things (IoT) and its related theories, methods, and skills, as well as to acquire a broad range of specialized knowledge in the field of communication technology, network technology, and sensor technology.

Internet of Things
1.Professional Knowledge

Internet of Things Industrial Networking Engineering is a branch of computer science. With the arrival of the era of Internet of Everything, the Internet of Things engineering specialty is getting more and more attention. The knowledge learned in this specialty has a common part with computer science and technology, software engineering, big data, etc., in which the public **** course part includes: Advanced Mathematics
, Discrete Mathematics,
Linear Algebra, Probability Theory, University English, University Physics, etc.,. Specialized course sections include:Data Structure, Computer Composition Principles, Computer Networks, Computer Operating System, C Language, Python, JAVA, Database, etc. Specialized courses include:Digital Circuits, Analog Circuits, Microcontrollers, Communication Technology, Internet of Things Control, Sensor Networks, etc. The program is very rich in courses, and the teacher teaches interesting courses, is a collection of computer hardware and software knowledge of a discipline.

Learning this specialty, the classroom tasks than learning computer science and technology to be a little lighter, and treat the code requirements are not as high as the pure learning software, students only need to master a language can be, I mastered the undergraduate C language, often use C to compile STM32 microcontroller and 51 microcontroller , of course, also play with the C language, and the C language. strong>, and of course played around with other microcontrollers, but those two were the main ones.

I personally think that the profession is more suitable for students interested in hardware, if there is a strong interest, then learning the profession will be very fun, looking at the sensors every day, learning to build a complete system, that is a very happy process.

? 2. Development prospects

? ? Currently, the Internet of Things (IoT) combined with emerging technologies such as 5G and cloud computing, IoT can be a key enabler for the digital transformation of all industries by increasing operational efficiencies, lowering costs, improving decision making, and enhancing the customer experience. enabler.

The key prospects are:

(1) 5G technologies.

Wearable technologies such as connected cars, predictive maintenance, and healthcare will benefit the most from 5G. 5G's ultra-reliable, low-latency communications (URLLC) capacity and support for TSNs (time-sensitive networks) will be important for IoT adoption.

? (2) HealthTech

The healthcare industry has long resisted the digital revolution and lagged far behind other industries.The Covid-19 pandemic has led to the rapid adoption of medical IoT technologies such as remote patient monitoring and medical robotics, which opens up a huge digital opportunity for IoT solution providers.

? (3) Internet of Things (AIoT) Technologies

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies are commonly used to interpret and respond to a number of human-to-machine and machine-to-machine data streams in real time.The convergence of the two technologies, AI and IoT, has given rise to the concept of AIoT, which is the embedding of AI technologies into IoT components. Combining data collected by connected sensors and actuators with AI reduces latency, increases privacy and real-time intelligence at the edge. It also means less data needs to be sent and stored on cloud servers.

? 3. Employment Directions

The main IoT employment directions are: for the IoT industry, from the IoT communication architecture, network protocols, information security and other design, development, management and maintenance.

The main positions include: IoT system design architects, IoT system administrators, network application system administrators, IoT application system development engineers and other core occupational positions, as well as IoT equipment technical support and marketing and other related occupational positions.

In short, I think IoT engineering is a better profession for future development.
